So will it turn over?
If not then check main cables from battery to starter and solenoid.
Also main Earth.

May sound silly but have you replaced the spark plugs?

Has to be the coil then!
And yes I know you say you have replaced it but I dont see what else it can be!

Yeah, that would have been my other suggestion, try replacing the coil again, seen it happen many times on here!

if the spark is weak on new leads, it may also be worth checking the main lead from the coil to the dizzy cap - try swapping it with one of the others.

When you turn the ignition on so all your dash lights come on can you hear the fuel pump in the boot ?.If not i would bet money that it is relay number 30.
